The deadline for the grant application to the Home Office Domestic Abuse Perpetrators fund is 17th February 2023, with a decision expected by 31st March 2023. The programme has a proposed budget of £2.5m, and the procurement is open with a tender period ending on 13th March 2023. The contract period is from 4th April 2023 to 3rd April 2025. The main procurement category is services related to training and community action. This tender presents an opportunity for nationally recognised providers in violence prevention, social work, and related services with expertise in safeguarding and proven track records in successful outcomes. Businesses with existing links to Cheshire and the North West area, as well as experience in domestic abuse perpetrator programmes, are well-suited to compete. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are encouraged to participate, given the suitability criteria. The competitive process invites businesses to contribute to reducing offending in a high risk, high harm cohort of perpetrators, potentially leading to further funding opportunities beyond the initial three-year term. ## Notice This Police and Crime Commissioner for Cheshire (PCC) has a requirement to identify a specialist provider to work with themselves and the Drive Partnership to deliver a 'Drive' domestic abuse perpetrator programme for a three-year period (2 year initial term with the third years funding subject to successful delivery and achieving milestones) across Cheshire; seeking to reduce offending in a high risk, high harm cohort of perpetrators. The PCC has submitted a grant application to the Home Office Domestic Abuse Perpetrators fund to secure funds to deliver this programme in Cheshire. The submission deadline for the PCC's application is 17th February 2023. It is expected that a decision on the application will be made by 31st March 2023. In the event we are not successful in our grant application for funding, a contract will not be awarded as a result of this procurement process. The procurement exercise is being run in parallel to the funding application because delivery timescales are tight. The PCC is hoping to attract a nationally recognised provider working to prevent Violence Against Women and Girls. Due to the sensitive nature of this work, the inherent risks working with perpetrators of domestic abuse and the requirement to have appropriately trained and skilled staff available in short timescales, we expect the successful bidder will have some existing links to the Cheshire and North West area. We would also expect they have extensive experience in this area; around safeguarding requirements and will have a proven track record in delivering successful outcomes. The proposed budget for this initial programme (3-year term) is PS2.5m. It is expected that the PCC will be able to put a further grant application into the Home Office for a continuation of the funding after the initial 3 years. Therefore, a further 3 x 12-month extension periods are available within the total term. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3e5ae3b7-d1b8-4611-9c16-5ffc52c06eb3 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 9 Feb 2023 | | Submission deadline | 13 Mar 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 3 Apr 2023 - 3 Apr 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CHESHIRE CONSTABULARY ON BEHALF OF THE POLICE AND CRIME COMMISSIONER FOR CHESHIRE | | Locality | WINSFORD, CHESHIRE | | Post town | Crewe | | Postcode | CW7 2UA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD6 Cheshire | | ITL 3 | TLD63 Cheshire West and Chester | | Local authority | Cheshire West and Chester | | Electoral ward | Winsford Over & Verdin | | Westminster constituency | Mid Cheshire | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 80000000 - Education and training services - 80521000 - Training programme services - 85000000 - Health and social work services - 85300000 - Social work and related services - 85310000 - Social work services - 85320000 - Social services - 85322000 - Community action programme - 85323000 - Community health services ## Release History - 9 Feb 2023 at 19:06 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3e5ae3b7-d1b8-4611-9c16-5ffc52c06eb3 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3e5ae3b7-d1b8-4611-9c16-5ffc52c06eb3 9th February 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=60041&B=BLUELIGHT Additional data - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/33132 User / Company ## Notice URLs - http://www.cheshire.police.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
